4:45 pm
the fishing boat that we arrested this morning michelle or based on the border but . their travels to come here and. this is focused on connecticut is that the end of the year for the for the last. couple of position is probably will try where of the problem with truly are of course the other courts with the same repeat patient to be said to favor the disembarkation and clearing through customs of illegal fishing products and it's been there has been complaints and we're trying to work together with the corresponding countries but with minister however as far as the european union countries are concerned we are responsible and all they can say is that we intend to force them trolls we really must look into these issues but if.
4:46 pm
i am. her or. her. at the center right from soon to go morocco as soon as the fish is caught in a bit on the one hand it is cut immediately and on the other it gets here within twelve hours packed in styrofoam with a proper id said no. nine to twelve degrees celsius and it gets here right away within twelve hours. yes of course they buy it it's also cheaper there's not a lot of difference from domestic fish.
4:47 pm
it's something else these people should think of when they eat fish that comes from an illegal fishing they eat the life of a fisherman because the duty if they can see him is think of that and realise the cost of the money follows. they'll see that them money does not benefit the fisherman. now or the fishing communities. that.
4:48 pm
say are foreign companies and very often chinese or spanish if they are the two states that operate like that in west africa and they found a key to the company which is supposedly senegalese they arrive with fifteen big industrial scale fishing vessels that supposedly being low into the company and so they fish freely. how do they escape the controls. when the ship comes to dhaka. but he seeks a senegalese pasta not going to the senegalese cause now becomes the fictitious president. did their big boom in order to deal with the public opinion and the
4:49 pm
regulations. he besta stamps and everything but it won't be fiddly. however it's the europeans who exploits the business. when the product arrives the european is here he checks it low doesn't contain is a big. and sends it off. he sells it in his cities become find this product here. and the fish is exported to europe. where you can see the container us. all fish goes to europe. the white man is here and controls everything all the loads the months the containers and sends them off to europe.
4:50 pm
so by having a flag sometimes as far removed as mongolia when you are on your ship you are basically exempt from a lot of fishing rules because mongolia hasn't ratified certain treaties or as and is not member of certain fisheries management organizations so this way you avoid many rules and regulations to is a clear new poll that needs to be addressed by the international community.
4:51 pm
the fishermen live day by day and what they earn isn't enough for them to make a living anymore. and that is why there are waves of migration towards spain with eve didn't get us all the list but. before when fishing when good and it said the people. fishermen had no need to leave for europe over they had opportunities possibilities and they were not interested in migrating. to move to europe just. one that organizes the flight of africans through europe organizes illegal migration to the e.u. had helped us out in combating illegal fishing all the young fisherman who are abandoning africa instead of going to europe would fish here for there would be a fish and they would make a profit. they would be able to feed their families but when they have nothing to
4:52 pm
eat when they lack protein when they have no money they will go where they can find to go to europe america canada. will be no repairs so if the e.u. wants our fish it should accept our children and its country so it can't be that it takes our fish causing misery and then tells our children to stay in their country the main public health issue in the e.u. is obesity. in our countries the main public health issue is famine so this injustice is not sustainable either we live together in a fair and it gala tarion world or we share a world of terror because you would do if i can console you how many are in the ocean with the sea bottom is full of to rogues with the dead bodies of our children young people who left in search of adventure.

4:55 pm
but he kept on vomiting we don't know what. throughout he died on the third day of the journey that he would get we threw his body to see because he started to decompose. we when we threw his body into the sea. we all prayed to god that he would go to heaven i'm in your home and in the many were crying and saying we're all going to die. when there was an image on the fourth day big waves broke the battle of the. good but. at that moment everyone was out of control no one did know how many because those people who had more experience know how dangerous it is. back i'm going to go i will have a god who was on the lookout i'm think i'm evidence more money. eldest of a soul a very experienced fisherman he told us not to fear about the pira advised us to
